Amid one of the worst national security, immigration and public safety crises in U.S. history, President Biden’s attempts to smooth over the crisis at the southern border are actually exacerbating the situation.

Democrats and Mexican officials have responded to Texas’ new law with fear-mongering and threats. President Biden’s border crisis shows no signs of abating as the state of Texas, overwhelmed with would-be migrants, fortifies its defenses with new laws. Chief among the new measures is Senate Bill 4, expected to be signed into law in days by Republican Gov....
“Our government [is] just leaving us behind. American dream is gone. It’s not here no more. … That’s just a dream. That’s all that’s left. Just the dreams,” Jaroslav ‘Jerry’ Schuster told NPR.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released its October 2023 monthly update and they did so earlier than usual.

Today, Texas celebrates its decision—made 188 years ago— to assert its right to self-defense. The Battle of Gonzales, in which the town refused to return to Mexico a cannon that its inhabitants had requested for “the defense of themselves and the constitution and the laws of the country,” started the Texas Revolution.

There’s no doubting New York City Mayor Eric Adams‘ liberal bona fides; he once denounced a political opponent for not defending Black supremacist Louis Farrakhan vociferously enough.

After Texas defended itself with a buoy barrier in the Rio Grande, the Biden administration went on the attack against Texans. As Washington, D.C., refuses to defend Texas, and even sides with Texas’ foreign antagonists over a buoy barrier meant to prevent illegal immigration, it brings to mind when Rome abandoned Britain.
